Jake Smith from Elmhurst, Ilafter the first desmond lets the children lend a hand gorge and john messing around scream arm leg Johnny from Lima, PeruDoes anyone know who says "thank you" at the end?? I mean, it sounds like Paul, but i'm not quite sure.

Shirley from Ocean, NjDon't be so hard on Sir Paul; it's just meant as a fun song. Tell me when you hear it you don't start movin' to the catchy tune. It would be hard not to. The Beatles are the best and will always be the best.Roberts, David (2001). British Hit Singles (14thed.). London: Guinness World Records Limited. p.40. ISBN 0-85156-156-X. Martino from ItalySupposedly, the line "Desmond stays at home and does his pretty face" was a mistake, but think about it. At the start, Desmond works in the marketplace, Molly sings in a band. After marriage, now it's Molly who works in the marketplace by day and in the evening she's *still* singing with the band. In other words, Molly's the overworked, exploited family breadwinner. And what's Desmond doing? Desmond stays at home and does his pretty face! Maggie from North Pole, AkYou know, this is where it gets irritating. And I've had discussions in forums on this topic. But we always /always/ seem to hold Paul to a different standard with some idolization there. We always want Paul to be perfect! His songs are /always/ so deep and powerful and perfect. But we always accept what John does as 'Avant Garde' and 'free'. John's songs weren't really a hit post-Beatles and c'mon as if there isn't a Beatles song you don't care for? So how come Paul's music always has to be this lovey dovey song, or this really meaningful deep stuff? Why can't the man ever just write a song for fun without everyone analyzing it and expecting it to be like all his other stuff? If John's music flopped it was 'oh well it was really deep and not everyone may understand it only the select few will'. But heaven forbid Paul /ever/ write a song that's different. Norman from Jakarta, IndonesiaIf they say Obladi Oblada was the bad song, why nobody said anything about songs in the earlier Beatles album ? I presume while you, arrogant white people (not meant to be racist) fooling yourself bashing this song, I could guarantee you that this song was very popular in non-English speaking countries. Why? Because this is great song. If only this song were written by somebody else. people would have said that this is a masterpiece (that's why Marmalade was so successful).

Its just a cool song. Its not like anything else I've heard. It's lighthearted and just like sayin "life moves on, you should move with it". I know a few people who listen to this song when they're depressed and it helps em. I don't know what you mean by saying Paul wrote a lot of bullsh*t, he wrote beautiful songs as well as happy upbeat songs, what do you call "Yesterday"? Classifiche". Musica e dischi (in Italian) . Retrieved 31 May 2022. Set "Tipo" on "Singoli". Then, in the "Titolo" field, search "Ob-la-di ob-la-da".Mark from Barrow-in-furness, EnglandJohn said this song makes no sense??? Maybe Paul should have added some lines about "yellow matter custard" or "semolina pilchers" or maybe "eggmen"... it would make a lot of sense then.

What I love about this song is the intro. First comes John on the piano. And then the bass. And the drums and handclaps. Really feel good. Emily from Newcastle, AustraliaVoice edited for Ringo, only a bit. i forgot to say that, and also i hear maracas. Jeremy from Downingtown, PaSo whether this is a good song or a bad song...I don't think it matters.Bob from Las Vegas, NvHey yeah so maybe its not one of Paul's most moving songs ever, but honestly its a mighty cool song... its a fun beat and its just plain cool... give the poor guy a break That's no mistake, 'she' refers to Desmond, who has done up his face to look like a woman, and goes out to sing in a band, AS a woman. And Molly "let's the children lend a hand" as Desmond did earlier in the song. In 1973 the first evolved line up of the band rejoined EMI Records and with their first record release became known simply as Marmalade. [2] All subsequent record releases are credited similarly. Peter Griffin from Quahog, RiProbably my least favorite song off the White Album. I rather dislike this one just like John, George, and Ringo did. I apologize to all those who consider it their favorite. Matt from Toronto, OnI was listening to the remastered stereo version on windows media player and i was messing around with the audio configuration on my computer and i hit "voice cancellation", (i guess it's for karioke or something), and i decided to listen to the song from the start , because it sounded really weird. at 00:02 i heard a voice say something..but i have no idea what and now it is bugging me.
